Tag Archives: Afterburn Effect

In todays post I have 2 videos for you.
The first video, I will discuss “the Truth About the Afterburn Effect”
THE AFTERBURN EFFECT AND HOW TO USE IT TO BURN MORE FAT!WHY METABOLIC WORKOUTS BURN MORE FAT THAN CARDIO AT THE GYM!
In the workout, I combine 10 exercises to create a metabolic HIIT Circuit that till not only help you build muscle but burn fat up 36 hours after you have done.
This relates to what is called EPOC Excess Post Exercise Oxygen Consumption.
In other words, after a metabolic workout your body’s metabolism is very high.
Basically because you are resting at this time your body is tapping into the fat stores for energy through oxygen. Oxygen burns fat.
Your body takes a lot longer to recovery after metabolic workouts; therefore your body is burning fat for a longer period. Science shows that your body can burn fat up to 36 after a HIIT workout (metabolic or Spartan) – THAT’S GREAT!
On the flip side, after a long and boring 45-60 minutes duration on the elliptical or exercise machine at the gym, because you are not exercising at high level (per say) your EPOC or post workout metabolism is not that high nor does not last very long. – THAT’S NOT SO GREAT!
Let’s compare:
A) 30-40 minute metabolic workout burns fat for 24-36 hours after workout
B) 45-60 minute duration on an exercise machine for traditional cardio workout burns fat 30-45 minutes after if you are lucky.
In the second video below, I am hooking you up with an awesome metabolic circuit I named the “Afterburn Assassins”.
Thought it would be a fitting name because of the video above.
